Thanks for the kind words Haylen, I'm glad that you've been inspired from my videos. It means a lot to me! I enjoy the projects and try to keep things simple. I find that simple solutions work best for pigeons. Thanks for watching and commenting.

That’s the size loft your birds need 😂👍👍👍👍

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

Thanks kalapatid, I hope your birds are flying good for you👍 - how's your new one?

[@gpsloft5868]

Rocky Ridge Kennel & Loft so far so good thanks for asking! I have a team of 7 and my plan is to get them to 30mi toss this week. Hopefully I can get them to do 100mi next month. How are your young birds doing?

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

@@gpsloft5868 I would have to say I wish they would fly longer! I have only got them up for 20 min. twice a day and I have to keep flagging to keep them in the air. I think they will come around sooner or later. Wait till you see my next video!! I got my first shipment of racers a few days ago 😀

[@gpsloft5868]

Rocky Ridge Kennel & Loft oh man I can’t wait!! That’s exciting haha! I’m happy for you brother, and I bet it was a lot of fun making the video! 😁

[@metinyilmazer1322]

I love it

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

Thank you, 👍

[@arcee33]

Boy,oh boy.. Turned out great. How does that wood hold up to the weather? I thought when it got rained on it a few times it would swell up.

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

In the old days it was junk but these days it’s not bad. With a good quality house paint it will last. It took me many years to start using it because what you said was true. You still have to keep up with the maintenance. Thanks Arcee 🙏

[@rowesloft3476]

Mike that looks absolutely beautiful mate, I’m jealous, your handy work is absolutely remarkable, keep up the videos mate I can’t wait to see the next 2 videos

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

Thanks my friend, I think you will like my next video, It’s going to show my new racing pigeons! I hope everything is going well at Rowe’s Loft.

[@rowesloft3476]

Rocky Ridge Kennel & Loft, aww awesome I can’t wait for the next video mate, yeah everything is super here atm, getting cold now, but first race this weekend, hopefully I can film it happening for you guys

[@joncurtis1898]

Hi Mike, I love this loft and going to copy it. I know the fly pen is 8 feet long, but how deep and how tall is the fly pen? One more question is how tall is the Sputnik trap? Thank you!!

[@mandydorpinghaus3389]

How many racers will they hold?

[@AstigRock]

wow nice loft bro.

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

Thanks for the nice words I appreciate it my friend. Thanks for watching.

[@joshking1721]

I’m about to make a new small loft, have never used a Sputnik style trap. My question is can pigeons ever fly out of these style traps? Hopefully your able to get back to me. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

I don't have a lot of experience with this style but I have heard that a clever bird can work its way back out! If you can close or cover the entrance after they enter then it should be fine. I still think it's the best style trap but if you are worried about it a lot then just go with the bob wire style which I use also and no one escapes. Best of luck Josh.

[@joshking1721]

Rocky Ridge Kennel & Loft Thanks for your reply, my birds always home so not to bothered, I actually have to open and close the door to let them back in at the moment. I’ll build the same trap as you have here in your video. I think it’s a great way to go. 👍

[@lenox137]

how many young pigeons there are in this loft ? After racing, I have to remake my old loft because it is too small, I have seen some solutions that I will use. Good job !

[@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons]

Krzysztof Zagawa There are 25 young pigeons but could possibly fit 30. Best regards
